Milk Carton Bird House

Is this not the cutest little bird house? This is actually the new Bigz L Milk Carton Die, to use with the Big Shot. I just Love it! You can use this for a little treat box for any occasion. Without the roof, it looks just like a miniature milk carton. Or, add the roof, and make these adorable little bird houses. Notice the scallop edge on the roof. This is the Scallop Trim Border Punch. This is one of the Sale-a-Bration items you could earn FREE right now with a $50 order! This is the first time SU has offered a punch as one of the SAB items. It coordinates with the Scallop Trim Corner Punch in the Occasions Mini. I Love the dainty look of this punch!

Of course, I had to use the new Extra Large Two-Step Bird Punch again too. You will be seeing him a lot, I just can't get enough of him. He's also a great way to use scraps of Designer Series Paper or cardstock. I used the new Sweet Pea DSP from the Occasions Mini, along with Pretty in Pink and Old Olive cardstock. I used Stampin' Dimensionals to pop him off the birdhouse, and on the front wing to add more dimension. The flower was punched out with the Trio Flower Punch and I added a Bashful Blue Brad for the center.

Sale-a-Bration is in full swing! Remember, you can order directly from my website, at your convenience, from the comfort of your own home, anytime 24/7. Don't forget to add your FREE SAB choice when placing your order!

Thanks for checking in today!
